This is how all exams should be! Encouraging fun and creative teamwork

Finally, we also found that the population code was flexible (didn't care about the order of presentation) and transferable (cross-decoding for magnitude and prob.) across value components. Suggesting that these are signals about integrating multiple attributed of reward value. 5/5

Amygdala neurons also signaled reward magnitude. More interestingly, the population transitioned from signaling probability, to signaling risk when information about magnitude was shown. Here, riskier outcomes are those with higher magnitudes and highest uncertainty. 4/5

We then recorded the activity of amygdala neurons, a brain structure heavily involved in emotions and reward processing, while the animals observed these images. These neurons signaled reward probability in an abstract way because they largely did not care about the exact image used. 3/5

For this, we first confirmed that monkeys behaved as if they cared about reward probability and magnitude. For this, they chose between gambles of different reward values. The reward value was a combination of the reward probability and the reward magnitude. 2/5
